More than a century has passed since the last Acolytes moved freely among the planets negotiating contracts; Brethren members seized vulnerable outposts; Covenant scientists revealed the latest technologies; and Destined raiders captured vessels in their space lanes. But, all is not well.<br \/>\nEspionage agents working for the various Factions gathered significant intelligence on their current leaders&#8216; intentions. As the decades receded into history, the families, clans, and tribes of long-forgotten names, including Avalon, Augustus, du Lac, and Ravndotter have coalesced their efforts. One hundred years of isolation have taken their toll on the Factions. While each has exploited particular assets, the lack of connectivity with others has created its own set of complications.<br \/>\nThe current generation of Terrans remains guarded and suspicious of others, but they are also filled with a desire to fulfil the providential future ordained by their leaders so many years ago. Scout ships and exploration vessels, commanded by pilots and astronavigators who have never ventured out beyond their own controlled space, have only begun making the arduous journey among the stars. Will these intrepid Faction members bury the sins of their forbearers, achieving a compromise among the others, or will they simply abandon all hope for a peaceful coexistence? Historians gazing out at the political landscape agree that after a long period of silence, the Tradewars shall begin.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.heimspiele.info\/HP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/tradewars2.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p><strong>Overview<\/strong><br \/>\nTradewars: Homeworld is a 1-4 player competitive space battle deck-building game, which utilizes three different scenarios to determine how the game is won:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Tradewars: Players must balance the collection of wealth with their need to defend their Homeworld.<br \/>\n\u2022 Spacewars: This scenario is all about survival. Be the last player standing to win.<br \/>\n\u2022 The Derelict: A single-player scenario that focuses on surviving an assault.<\/p>\n<p>During a player&#8217;s turn, the player first selects any 1 of the 10 roles in the game, which are:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Chancellor<br \/>\n\u2022 Treasurer<br \/>\n\u2022 Admiral<br \/>\n\u2022 Captain<br \/>\n\u2022 Commander<br \/>\n\u2022 Engineer<br \/>\n\u2022 Saboteur<br \/>\n\u2022 Counterespionage Agent<br \/>\n\u2022 Smuggler<br \/>\n\u2022 Trader<\/p>\n<p>The scenarios determine which of the 10 roles are more desirable during the game, though each role has its purpose. Players must determine what actions and benefits they need in order to move their agenda forward. Once the role is resolved, the player may trade cards to buy Upgrade cards.<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.heimspiele.info\/HP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/tradewars3.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Cards may also be sold to increase the player&#8217;s Treasury value.<\/p>\n<p>________________________________________<\/p>\n<p>Adjustments are made on the Score Pad whenever necessary and in accordance to card effects or player actions. Wealth, Homeworld Defense Points, and the number of starships the player can build are kept track of on the mat.<\/p>\n<p>________________________________________<\/p>\n<p>When a player acquires starships, they may deploy them to the &#8222;Space Lane&#8220;, which act as walls to protect their Homeworld from invasion. Before a starship can be deployed, it must be configured, which entails connecting 3 Upgrade cards; the starship Upgrade card, crew Upgrade card, and weapons upgrade card. Configuration of a starship means that it is manned, armed and ready to fly. Each Upgrade card has an Energy rating (or &#8222;capacity&#8220;), Weapon rating (or &#8222;firepower&#8220;), and Crew rating (or &#8222;resistance&#8220;).<br \/>\nA player may command up to 4 starships at a time, from an array of 5 unique classes. Starships can be configured in up to 125 different combinations.<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.heimspiele.info\/HP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/tradewars4.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.heimspiele.info\/HP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/tradewars5.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Combat is initiated when the player decides to use their starships to attack an opponent\u2019s starships or an opponent\u2019s unprotected homeworld. Attacking is only possible if the player elects to take the Admiral role for their turn.<br \/>\nAttacks can be done with 1 or more starships and the attacker gets to decide which of the opponent\u2019s ships are included in the skirmish.<br \/>\nInitiative is determined by rolling dice. If the attacking player wins the initiative, the battle continues. If not, the opponent is able to escape the fight.<\/p>\n<p>________________________________________<\/p>\n<p>A player&#8217;s turn ends when the player is done taking all their actions, at which point they may draw back up to 5 cards. If their draw deck is exhausted, the discard pile is shuffled and becomes the new draw deck.<br \/>\nThe players continue to take turns until the game is won. The victory condition is determined by the scenario selected by the players. Once the objective has been met, the game is over and the winner is announced.<\/p>\n<p>________________________________________<\/p>\n<p><strong>HP:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.outerlimitgames.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.outerlimitgames.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\n<center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.heimspiele.info\/HP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/tradewars6.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jetzt bei KS mitf\u00f6rdern :)!
